How To Grow Your Business
People in the network marketing industry have a hard time figuring out what it takes to succeed. That is if they realize (experience) that the 3-foot rule and the hotel meetings are not very productive. Everybody seems to jump on the bandwagon about attraction marketing and using the Internet to generate leads.
Let me tell you right now, recruiting issues run much deeper than just “leads”. It’s simply not enough to just put your message on YouTube and MySpace and the rest of the social media website family. You need to provide value and great content, to demonstrate your ability to lead. People follow leaders, you need to learn and master the skill; positioning. Positioning is what makes big companies grow bigger, what makes people loyal to a brand and what makes some of the companies in today’s economy, make more money than ever before.
The thing is that most networkers think that if they could just find folks with an interest of starting a home based business they would be all set.
”I don’t want tire-kickers, I want people I can call up and sign them up right away.“ – average networker
The truth is that if you are waiting for people to call you and tell you they are ready to buy whatever you offer, you better have another income stream, because it will take you a long time to make money with your home based business.
There is no such thing as a ”hands of system”. Think about it for a second. If all you needed to do was to post some videos on YouTube and have a Facebook profile why would your company need you?
If you truly want to grow your home based business you will have to work at it. It will require your effort and energy, but when you reach your goal and you have a successful home based business. You will not have any feeling of regret, it was hard work – but it was worth it.
Here is the deal, believe me when I tell you attraction marketing and social media like YouTube, MySpace, Squidoo, etc. is great, but you need more than just leads. You need a funneling process or a marketing system. What do you do with those leads? And no you cannot just wait for people to call you, because 99 % of the time they won’t.
The truth is that you can grow a six figure income and build a huge downline, but you’re going to have to let go of what you’ve been taught about growing your business (if you have been listening to your upline).
Back to the social media aspect of your marketing success. Many people are promised to use these new technologies to get out there and have these websites do all the heavy lifting for them. If you broad cast your fantastic opportunity and try to “sell” to the whole world, you’re going to get hurt.
Social media and attraction marketing do work, and they work very well. But only for those folks that have taken the time to do these 3 simple steps I’ve outlined next:
Here is a brief overview of what you’ve been taught in this industry:
No wonder the failure rate is a staggering 97 % in the home based business industry. Take a look at the 3-step process one more time and start thinking as a marketer, not just a network marketer.
